Customer Reviews

Great For Backcountry Camping
As my title suggests, these are excellent for Backcountry Camping. You have the equivalent of 2-3 days worth of food. It weighs next to nothing (2 pounds if I remember correctly), and can be eaten on the go. It's not gourmet dining to be sure, but it's not meant to be, and they still taste pretty good. I bought a whole case of these when I drove from the East Coast to Alaska and they cut down on my travel time because I wasn't stopping all the time to get fast food or some other obese-inducing garbage. As I said, I wouldnt want to live on the stuff, but it does have some practical uses besides stocking up for the apocalypse or some other craziness.

Oh not sold separately
The picture show's 6 blocks and so when you read 9 bars, I thought oh 9 bars and the bar is small. The bar is about as big as a dvd case and is in 9 parts not 6 like in the picture. 4 years 6 month on the experation of the the one I got but it's still a long time. Im unhappy with them not be shown properly.

Cha-Ching
I'm so glad that my order only took like 2 days to arrive..They don't expire until 2014 and I'm hoping that I don't have to use them. They're cheaper now so i'm going to order some more.
